I finally sent Heather a picture which is now posted on Jezebel’s Mirror.

#

I’m taking part in Behind the Curtain

#

Ouch, just had a deep teeth cleaning done.

#

Dr. Dobb’s MacintoshDeveloper.com is a new Mac developer site with some great content already.

#

I just spent some time downloading the entire new Smashing Pumpkins album from www.billy-corgan.net. I think it’s interesting that I don’t know if this is legal or not. Is it?

Today’s cool link stolen from Zeldman: fontomas*

Where Hobbits Live Virtually. They’re using Red Hat to render the effects for The Fellowship of the Ring.

#

waferbaby corners matt haughey and heather.

#

Salon has an interview with the head dude at TiVO.

#

BBEdit 6.0 was released this afternoon.

#

In an effort to get everything in my home hooked up to my high speed Internet connection, I picked up this Linksys router. I agree with the review, dead simple and it works great.

#

I had a chance to check out the new Sony Palm OS handheld. I wasn’t all that impressed. It didn’t feel very natural in my hand. The lack of Mac OS support is surprising considering that every other Palm based device offers it.

#

Somehow, I had forgotten about Everything.

#

From the “always taking it to the next level” category, the Beastie Boys are releasing a 2 DISC DVD Video Anthology on October 10th which allows you to watch 18 of their videos with different angles and mixes. It’s on order, of course.

#

Davezilla is funny and well designed.

#

I’m re-reading Lord Foul’s Bane, which I hadn’t read since I was in high school. It’s different from most Fantasy books in that there is a rich and deep sub-text about the main character’s battle with leprosy that is inextricably linked to his behavior in the book. If you like Fantasy and haven’t read this series, you should get on it. I love re-reading books at different times in my life. It leads to picking out different things, and learning different things from the same book. How my imagination drew the characters ten years ago and how it draws them now are different.

#

I went shopping in Boston yesterday and bought some neat looking Gravis shoes. Pretty good Flash site too. The shoes are really comfortable. It’s not, for you gamers, the same company that made your joystick.

#

Damn, Kozmo is out of everything I want. Must have been a long weekend for them.

#

3 days to the Mac OS X beta.

#

Dave hangin out with Chuck D? So weird to me to have two people that have had so much influence on me communicating. Public Enemy’s music had a profound effect on me, but I haven’t listened to any of the new stuff.

#

I’m watching BattleBots. They destroy each other. For some reason, I love it.

#

/caffemocha put up a new version of their site while I was out of town.

Waiting for that new k10k to be launched tomorrow.
